This was lacking something... spices, maybe. I think if you substitute the tomato sauce w/ a jar of already seasoned Ragu this recipe would be just perfect!! Otherwise, it was really good!! I added a bit of garlic powder. I will DEFINITELY try it again w/ seasoned sauce. The prep wasn't so bad! - 9/18/08
